If they are a mere 200 years behind us they'd need sail-powered star ships to get here. Such are the limits of human imagination.
I'm afraid so. As much as I love Star Trek and Babylon 5, these scenarios of multiple alien races at approximately the same technological level in close proximity to each other is pure folly. If you compared any two stars at random, it would be very rare to find two within 100 million years of the same age. Outside of a cluster, such pairs would be far apart - especially if you only consider those of the appropriate stellar type to support life and actually having a planet of the appropriate type in the goldilocks zone.
If we had a starship like the Enterprise, capable of traveling thousands of light years, we would likely only find planets with non-intelligent life or beings so advanced, they would be indistinguishable from gods. It would take one hell of a lot of searching to find an alien civilization only thousands of years behind or ahead of us. And I have a hard time seeing how there could be any meaningful inter-species relationships even with those.

The last time I was in the US I encountered an alien and asked him, "WTF is it with you guys and the anal probes?"
He said, "Hey, that has nothing top do with me, homes. I'm just here to steal your jobs and take your women!"
I suspect he MAY have been the wrong type of alien...

That would be "Holmes". Forgivable mistake - for an alien.

Are they credible? I do not know. I have seen enough over the years and most seem to have screw loose or two.
I do believe that there is lots of life in this universe.
My answer to the poll is no yes.
